Soon, Rutger and I will be going to Taiwan (Chiayi) to show our film 'Etgar Keret: Based on a True Story'. Etgar Keret is very popular in a few countries scattered around the world and Taiwan is one of them. He himself has no idea why the people of this Asian country love his Israeli stories, but maybe we'll find out. Also we are very much looking forward to getting to watch this giant tower in Taipei. Please let us know if you have any tips!

Time Out Tel Aviv did an interview with Rutger Lemm and me on our film about Etgar Keret. Unfortunately, we still can't read Hebrew, so we have know idea what they say. We've heard they are positive! If not, please, be quiet and keep us in our sweet dream... So, if you can read Hebrew, it's here. Also the screenings in Australia went very well if I may believe some very enthusiastic reactions on Facebook and in my inbox.

I am editing the footage I shot with my friend Jaehoon Cho for his Stella Foundation right now. I filmed his crazy idea to bike from the Kilimanjaro to Cape of Good Hope to raise awareness for depression in Korea. This beautiful landscape was in Namibia and makes me miss that beautiful country a lot!

Today The Times of Israel published a great piece about our film on Etgar Keret. You can read it here. I liked the title already: 'A hunt for the kernel of truth behind Etgar Keret’s stories'.We had some very nice screenings at the Haifa Film Festival and we managed to organise extra screenings at the Cinematheque in Tel Aviv. Hopefully there will be more.On this picture we were all together, from left to right: Gur Bentwich (filmmaker, interviewee and good friend of Etgar), then it's me, then Shira (filmmaker and Etgar's wife, so if you want to know the truth about Etgar, ask her), Rutger (my partner in crime), Etgar himself and Peter Vandrie (our composer). Lechaim!

We had three sold-out screenings in a row now and I'm really happy with all the positive responses! Etgar flies back to Tel Aviv today with his son Lev and wife Shira. We will stay in the Low Countries with our cardboard Fatso (drawn by our animator Nina Gantz and cut out by Maartje Smits).

When we were filming our documentary Etgar Keret: Based on a True Story in Tel Aviv, I saw a guy that I still knew from Amsterdam sitting on a bench. It was Peter Vandrie, an amazing musician, who had just moved there with his Israeli girlfriend. We had a beer and I told him about our film about Etgar Keret. 'What? Keret? That's my favourite writer!' he said. 'Let me make the music for your film with my friend (who's also an amazing musician) Orel!' So they did, worked very hard on their funky tunes and the music fits the film really well! Peter will even come to Amsterdam to do a short live show at Het Ketelhuis.
